Alcohol

There is no drug I know of that savages its victim more than alcohol. I too have watched a family member drink himself to death.

My sympathies.

Slowly but surely though, it is becoming illegal once again to drink outside of the home. Most states have open container laws; all have DWI laws, and public intoxication laws.

As for the cops and guns: I always hear the line about dangerous armed dealers and smugglers. I never once took a loaded gun to a drug deal. I had a lot of them pointed at me and got shot at once.

Our Policy on Comment Submissions: Co-publishers of Narco News (which includes The Narcosphere and The Field) may post comments without moderation. All co-publishers comment under their real name, have contributed resources or volunteer labor to this project, have filled out this application and agreed to some simple guidelines about commenting.

Narco News has recently opened its comments section for submissions to moderated comments (that’s this box, here) by everybody else. More than 95 percent of all submitted comments are typically approved, because they are on-topic, coherent, don’t spread false claims or rumors, don’t gratuitously insult other commenters, and don’t engage in commerce, spam or otherwise hijack the thread. Narco News reserves the right to reject any comment for any reason, so, especially if you choose to comment anonymously, the burden is on you to make your comment interesting and relevant. That said, as you can see, hundreds of comments are approved each week here. Good luck in your comment submission!
